Jason from Huntsville, AL:

It's the beginning.
  7:05pm
Kendall!:

Jews rest on Saturday because it's the 7th day. Also, I grew up a Quaker and instead of Sunday School we called it "First Day School" so Sunday is definitely the first day of the week.
  7:07pm
jon:

bourbon? check. peanuts? check. night people!
  7:08pm
Dude...:

Are you guys seriously this retarded?
  7:08pm
hamburger / london:

don't know what this says about myself, but big lebowski and fight club I could watch over and over again..
  7:08pm
Dan B From Upstate:

@hamburger, Fight Club is actually #1 on my list.

And Lebowski is just classic cinema.
  7:09pm
other david:

Is this skipping for anyone else - dare I mention skyping host?

Jason from Huntsville, AL:

1967 "Planet of the Apes"
  7:09pm
depressed Persian cab driver:

@Chipotle- Then how come you have the most Imigrantes sin papeles? That is what makes the US dining industry great! Slave labor. Tasty.
  7:10pm
Jason from Huntsville, AL:

@Other David: Dave's mic sounds like it's going in and out a bit.
  7:10pm
cheri:

has anybody seen "FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS"? yet??
  7:10pm
other david:

cheri, no, no I haven't. Should I?
  7:11pm
Jason from Huntsville, AL:

@cheri: I would only see that if ordered by a court of law.
  7:11pm
jon:

The whole smokin' banana peels thing was invented by Country Joe from Country Joe and the Fish
  7:15pm
Dylan Clayburn:

Dave's mic is real shitty.
  7:15pm
tim:

oh that donovan
  7:15pm
glenn:

really? country joe? awesome.
  7:16pm
Matt from Springfield:

It depends what you can say on the radio, but...
"Mellow Yellow" comes down to the "E-lec-tric-al ba-na-na"...refering to a yellow dildo. BUT, in an era when everything had the suggestion of drugs, some teens starting smoking banana leaves, thinking that was the message and you could get high off of it.
  7:16pm
Jason from Huntsville, AL:

"The Company of Wolves"
  7:16pm
Dude...:

Don't forget Street Trash.
  7:17pm
Listener Dave From Seattle:

Big yellow joint
  7:17pm
Matt from Springfield:

Not like the smart teens, who worked at plant nurseries to swipe Morning Glory seeds :)

Much like how "Yellow Submarine" is not about drugs...if you don't get that, you don't get Psychedelia. But certain yellow pills were named "yellow submarines", also after the fact.
  7:18pm
Dude...:

Frankenhooker had that box that you could press a button and she says "wanna date?"
  7:19pm
glenn:

i have tried to watch yellow submarine about ten times. i still haven't made it all the way through.
  7:20pm
Matt from Springfield:

Hi Jason!
You're always a great caller, without fail! I was just joking about taking Dave's thunder as the "Southern gents", but call often, great voice and great conversationalist!
  7:21pm
Listener Dave From Seattle:

I watched a movie once.
  7:21pm
Matt from Springfield:

@glenn: Oh the movie. Yeah, it could have (should have) been better, I still like the underlying concept.
  7:21pm
glenn:

it's the berlin alexanderplatz of animated beatles movies.
  7:21pm
Marc in Liverpool:

Bad Taste was one, the alien flipping the finger but then someone made me watch it.
  7:21pm
Catfish:

the box I remember from a video I never got to rent as a kid was Gator Bait, and Gator Bait 2.
  7:21pm
Dude...:

@Comment Reader These guys don't seem to remember or know anything. What was your favorite colored M&M?
  7:21pm
Matt from Springfield:

@Seattle Dave: I call BULLSHIT! LIAR!!!
  7:22pm
Jason from Huntsville, AL:

@Matt for Springfield: You're very kind to say so. Nice to "meet" you.
  7:22pm

  7:22pm
Listener Dave From Seattle:

I can prove it! Somehow!
  7:22pm
depressed Persian cab driver:

And my fare just now has said you are a waste of time, but I try hard to defend you. The time wasting to me would be if bland music were playing all day for her fat ass not to be offended in my cab! This is America.
  7:23pm
Kendall!:

What about Laser Discs?
  7:24pm
jaycjay:

We had super-8 when I was a kid, but mostly it was for home movies. But, I do remember a couple of movies my dad purchased that we could watch. Nothing that was a real "commercial" or hit film, though.
  7:25pm
Kendall!:

I found a few laser discs on the street a while ago could I please borrow your player dave?
  7:25pm
Matt from Springfield:

Wow glenn, amazing allusion. By that do you mean "right before the Wall came down" (the Beatles personal relationships were coming apart around the time that came out)

@Seattle Dave: Is your ticket stub available from the Hawaii Department of Live Births? Even then I warn you that some will never believe it.
  7:25pm
other david:

got some super-8 tape converted to dvd recently, it's just begging for a post rock sound track, with some unctuous title
  7:25pm
fred:

there was this kid (or really his mother) who would give me a home alone vhs at every birthday party
  7:26pm
Jason from Huntsville, AL:

Sweet Liberty: Lise Hilboldt
  7:27pm
Dude...:

Maybe you guys should organize and research for your show a bit before you get on the air talking like a couple morons. Jesus.
  7:27pm
Matt from Springfield:

@Jason: Nice to "meet" you as well!
  7:28pm
w dawg:

she' was in superman!!!
  7:29pm
Listener Dave From Seattle:

I ate some popcorn?
  7:29pm
Matt from Springfield:

@fred: The mid 90s equivalent (also starring Macaulay) was "Richie Rich"--every single present everywhere was a VHS of that. It was spreading like Kudzu!
  7:29pm
Kendall!:

If it's not a true story, then who owns the Bubba Gump's shrimp house in Times Square?
  7:30pm
Dan B From Upstate:

There's the studio owned Bubba Gump Shrimp Company in Times Square. That's probably where the people are getting the hats.
  7:30pm
w dawg:

as "1st Secratary"....remember?
  7:33pm
Dan B From Upstate:

It's a Michael Bay movie.... Michael Bay is my mortal enemy.
  7:34pm
Listener Dave From Seattle:

About Tootsie?
  7:34pm
fred:

i think michael bay is everyone's mortal enemy and if he isn't he should be
  7:35pm
Listener Dave From Seattle:

Ha, I wrote that right before I heard Dave say it!
  7:37pm
Kendall!:

VHS is totally a brand name
  7:38pm
Dan B From Upstate:

Hentai.
  7:38pm
fred:

video home system
  7:39pm
glenn:

mostly what i meant was that an unwatchable 1hr 15 minute or so long beatle movie was the same as an unwatchable 15 hour long fassbinder film.
  7:39pm
Comment Reader:

New Show Title: Instead of the game "20 Questions", this could be "300 Unanswered Questions."

Is this performance art, maybe?? Just a thought.
  7:39pm
byrd:

video home system
  7:39pm
Marc in Liverpool:

Toshiba developed VHS, Sony Betamax. Sony won with BluRay. The winner gets a royalty for every disc sold.
  7:39pm
Listener Dave From Seattle:

I think you are talking about blue ray
  7:40pm
Listener Dave From Seattle:

Beta was superior. I had a beta machine back in the day. I lost :(
  7:41pm
jaycjay:

Wikipedia: JVC, "The Victor Talking Machine Company of Japan, Limited" was a subsidiary of the United States' leading phonograph and record company, the Victor Talking Machine Company.
  7:41pm
Jason from Huntsville, AL:

I heard that the Pornography industry influenced the victory of VHS. I remember using BetaMax and TV jobs I had.
  7:41pm
jaycjay:

In 1929 majority ownership was transferred to RCA-Victor. So yes, it was part of the U.S. "Victor Company".
  7:42pm
Matt from Springfield:

@glenn: Ah, Fassbinder. I'm familiar with various Fassbinder refs, but haven't actually seen any of his.
  7:42pm
Marc in Liverpool:

JVC sorry, Toshiba was HD DVD. Got them mixed up.
  7:42pm
Listener Dave From Seattle:

VHS was cheaper I think, which helped
  7:42pm
jon:

tell us your lists
  7:43pm
Dan B From Upstate:

I'll boycott Betamax tapes!
  7:43pm
Marc in Liverpool:

BluRay's get called BD's.
  7:44pm
glenn:

digital video disc, ya numpty.
  7:44pm
Matt from Springfield:

@Seattle Dave: They said how Beta was superior, but you could only tell by sophisicated technical instruments. Could YOU yourself actually tell it was better? Higher quality, more durable?
  7:44pm
Listener Dave From Seattle:

News flash - they are never going to tell us their lists
  7:46pm
glenn:

i wonder what betsy's doing right now. ..sigh...
  7:48pm
Listener Dave From Seattle:

I don't remember the specifics. Betamax had a better picture in general and the machines were more pro.
  7:48pm
jaycjay:

Existenz, definitely Jennifer Jason Leigh. That was the only reason I watched it.
  7:48pm
Fun Fact:

Did you know that WFMU has five alternate streams and over ten years of archives? If you don't like what you're hearing, feel free to switch to one of those!
  7:49pm
Listener Dave From Seattle:

Right turn Clyde
  7:49pm
Marc in Liverpool:

Orangutangs frighten me.
  7:50pm
Orangutang:

But we're so cuddly.
  7:51pm
Marc in Liverpool:

I like the song in Vally Girl when he meets the girl at the party. Eyes of a Stranger.
  7:51pm
Dan B From Upstate:

Astronauts love Orangutang.
  7:51pm
Sarah:

Read "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" once too often, eh?
  7:53pm
fred:

nice fade
  7:53pm
Dan B From Upstate:

I never get tired of the slow fade. So much better than Scharpling cutting some one off mid--
  7:53pm
jon:

the fadeout is the distinguished hangup
  7:54pm
fred:

you never know when they've figured it out
  7:57pm
Dan B From Upstate:

This has potential to be the five greatest minutes in the history of radio.
  7:58pm
emily:

are dave and sandy in the same place?
  7:58pm
Sarah:

This show is too damn short.
  7:59pm
Marc in Liverpool:

Yep. Just getting started.
  7:59pm
Dan B From Upstate:

Starting to get dark out much earlier now. Night People actually ends when it's night out!
  8:00pm
Marc in Liverpool:

1am here.
  8:01pm
Listener Dave From Seattle:

I guess we can just keep talking on here
  8:07pm
